Fuerte Avocado Tree — B-Type — South Orange County

Fuerte Avocado Tree for South Orange County

Why avocado planting requires care

Avocados can decline quickly when planted too deep, kept chronically wet or placed in poorly drained soil. We evaluate planting height, drainage, irrigation and exposure before installation and design the establishment program around the property.

Organic establishment

Earth People focuses on root-zone health, appropriate mulch, seasonal irrigation adjustment, organic nutrition where indicated and preventative organic pest management. The goal is a healthy expanding root system—not a short burst of growth from excessive fertilizer.
